Our October cover star is relentless with releasing tracks (not to mention guest starring on other artists' songs) and the video for "Check It Out" (featuring a brilliant sample of "Video Killed the Radio Star" and a killer mid-song breakdown) just hit the web. Rumor has it a video for "Right Thru You," another Minaj gem, will be released today as well.

You might think having so many songs plinking around the Billboard Top 200 would be overkill, but you'd be wrong: Nicki was recent named the female rapper with the most hit singles on the top selling list ever. Keep it up, girl!

        Gia Gunn is really keeping that "fuck Miss RuPaul" energy alive. The trans drag queen, who was eliminated not once but twice from the fourth season of RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars, made it clear that she's still feeling some kind of way about her former TV mentor while savagely reading Ru's All Stars runway looks during an interview on Canadian entertainment show eTalk, which was shared to their Twitter account on Tuesday.

        Chelsea Manning is the star and guest editor of Dazed's spring 2019 Infinite Identities issue, and in her cover story interview, Manning describes how her life has changed since her release from military incarceration in 2017 -- although she explains she's no longer interested in discussing what led to her imprisonment. "These parts of my life are over," she says. "This is definitely something I share with a lot of former prisoners; we don't like to bring up our time in prison and the things that got us in there. It's really hard." Keep Reading →

        Enigmatic pop artist SOPHIE's Grammy nomination was a huge moment not just for the artist herself but for transgender visibility in the music industry.

But they certainly weren't anticipating that a bumbling red carpet correspondent would misgender SOPHIE while interviewing her. Keep Reading →
